Ok I gotta ask

[jt85]

I've seen several pictures of guys using a great northern quiver with what looks like rubber bands wrapped around the hood what is the purpose of this?

[northern lights]

I use them on occasion to reduce bulky clothes on my bow arm.

Just a handy place to store your rubber bands.

I don't use a bow quiver, but I've also seen guys stick a small branch/leaves in the rubber band as an added bit of camo.

Redneck range finder, if the critters close enough to hit with a rubber band, it,s close enough to take a shot..

[jt85]

Haha great answers guys, I think Muttly's is my favorite answer but Whip's probably makes the most sense.

X2....I dont use an armguard...rubber bands work great for me when wearing alot of bulky clothing.

I use a rubber band around the quiver to secure a spare 2blade broadhead in the quiver.

Fred Eichler always did it for securing bulky sleeves if needed. It didn't take long to catch on.

If Fred hung a lollipop on his quiver soon everyone would do it.

I use them for bulky clothes if needed but also for attaching my tag.

I hear that they make a decent short-term string keeper, too. They're a multi-purpose tool. Lol

I use them on my upper arm on bulky clothes where my arm guard doesn't reach.

[Jmatt1957]

beastmaster has the answer lol.

[KSCATTRAPR]

Not a bad idea.....

[Red Beastmaster]

Hey, this just might catch on!

[jt85]

KSCATTRAPR, I think your on to something there I bet I could slide a snickers in there too

[KSCATTRAPR]

LOL, thats not a bad idea either....the possibilities are endless.
